Many intestinal hormones are also distributed throughout the central nervous system (CNS).
However, the existence of secretin, a typical intestinal hormone, has not been clearly shown …

The present study involves the isolation and characterization of secretin-like
immunoreactivity from the brains of pigs, rats and dogs. Secretin-like immunoreactivity was …

The effects of secretin administration on the rat adrenal cortex have been investigated both
in virro and in vivo. Secretin significantly raised basal aldosterone production by dispersed …

In the present study expression levels of secretin and secretin receptor mRNAs in several
brain regions of rats ranging in age from postnatal days 7 to 60 were investigated by …

Existence of the gastro‐intestinal peptide secretin in the CNS has been a matter of debate,
and contrasting results have been reported, altogether indicating that the CNS is not a major …

The discovery of secretin initiated the field of endocrinology. Over the past century, multiple
gastrointestinal functions of secretin have been extensively studied, and it was discovered …

Secretin immunoreactivity was detected in the central nervous system of the rat and pig with
a highly specific radioimmunoassay. The secretin immunoreactivity in the rat and pig brain …

For the first time, the relationship between secretin and autism has been demonstrated by
one of us. Intravenous administration of secretin in autistic children caused a fivefold higher …

Secretoneurin is a novel neuropeptide produced in the central nervous system by cleavage
of secretogranin II (Kirchmair et al., 1993, Neuroscience 53: 359). In the present study, we …

The gastrointestinal functions of the 27-amino acid secretin peptide have been well
established. In previous prenatal studies, secretin expression in the rat duodenum was …
